Lyrics Ina Wroldsen – Favela

As the sun rises
She opens up her hazel beautiful eyes and
Begins
Her baby cries

She come from the Favela-la
Hills of Santa Teresa-sa
Underneath the redeemer-mer
And the sun in the sky
She come from the Favela-la
Asks me E ai beleza-za
Underneath the redeemer-mer
Where the hills come alive
She works the Favela night

She works the Favela night
Favela
She works the Favela night

And the wind blows
She lives on lonely streets
Where nobody goes
Alone
Just a young girl
Born on the left side of this
Right handed world
She knows

She come from the Favela-la
Hills of Santa Teresa-sa
Underneath the redeemer-mer
And the sun in the sky

Favela
She works the Favela night
Favela

Deep in the colours and the streets
Lost in the funk Favela beats
Prisioneira
Dancing in the Favela
Safe in the Ipanema bays
We raise a glass on holiday
It’s a lopsided world
When your a girl
Born into nothing at all

She come from the Favela-la
Hills of Santa Teresa-sa
Underneath the redeemer-mer
And the sun in the sky
She come from the Favela-la
Asks me E ai beleza-za
Underneath the redeemer-mer
Where the hills come alive
She works the Favela night

Favela
She works the Favela night
Favela
She works the Favela night
